The same ancient text or artifact as recorded by 2 records across 2 independent projects, recognised as one entity by its TM-Text identifier. View on Trismegistos →

Fragmentary ostracon account from Trimithis in the Great Oasis, listing small quantities measured in matia and amounts of oil, one entry apparently for an officialis (an official's staff member).

In English machine translation

[convex] […] 1 mation […] […] to the officialis(?) [...]eos, 1 (measure) of oil [concave] […] […] 4 matia […] matia […] […] 7 (measures) of oil […] of oil […]

The mation is a small dry measure; the abbreviation read as officialis refers to a subordinate in an official's bureau.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Account). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
